If, for example, Signal pulls of of their market, how can you force people not to use it? Signal never had office or any legal representation in my country and I'm using it?

What does that mean "pull of of their market" for some app you can download and use as you wish?

Easiest way is prevent download of the app from the App Store based on your region especially on iOS that is hard to get around.
